tinfoil hat but frys used to seem to fuck with competitor websites on their in building wifi. amazon would never work. At last 2 times I had to go outside to get cell coverage and then pull up the amazon price to show them to get a price match. nothing really stopping home depot or whomever from shoving a pi-hole in front of competitor sites either.
- lxgr 4y agoI‘m generally not a big fan of most consumer VPNs, but this is one scenario where they can really help.
- josephcsible 4y ago> nothing really stopping home depot or whomever from shoving a pi-hole in front of competitor sites either. And this is why people who say "DNS-over-HTTPS is bad since it bypasses Pi-hole!" are wrong.
- zamnos 4y agoA pi-hole that null roots traffic? No, unfettered by TLS certificates and morals, the competitors site would show the item as being out of stock and drastically more expensive, and the store's closing early today.
- grogenaut 4y agoI also think they adjusted prices to the stores list price not the on the web price for fry's but I only called them on it once. The other time it was in a TV and I just haggled and walked and they chased me down to the parking lot to say yes
- jacooper 4y agoI mean blocking 8.8.8.8 and 1.1.1.1 should be enough.
- kxrm 4y agoI think the argument is about choice, not whether this tech should exist. When a device or app forces DNS-over-HTTPS it does so to take away my choice.
- josephcsible 4y agoThe owner of a device not being able to change whether or not it uses DoH is definitely bad. But a lot of people say DoH is bad even when the owner can easily turn it off.
